Ah, but people DO!
You're probably noticing that the word "should" often indicates a magical misconception. We find ourselves looking out at the world and declaring, "This is not how it should be!"
What happens to our calm confidence when we do this?
Sometimes, we get anxious, angry, or fearful β not calm.
Sometimes, we feel disempowered and helpless and despairing⦠because things are not as they (magically) should be!
Can you feel the trap?
Discerning when we're arguing with how people actually are and pausing can give us some space to reflect.
- I prefer when people (what?). Not everyone does or does it all the time.
- When people don't (what?) (and some people won't), I feel (how?).
I invite myself to be calm and confident⦠anyway. This is how it is, and it does not have to stop me from thriving.
